  • MindyM79 Mindy Miles (@MindyM79) reported

    @overwatch 2 is so f***ing broken it is a joke to even exist. The people in charge should all just fire themselves for how ridiculously they have screwed up.

  • BigH0tSteamyMen DEEJAYFAN229371 (Fozz) (@BigH0tSteamyMen) reported

    @NoodleVEVO It's just hard to admit to your wrongdoings when you pour enough time in a game to convince yourself that you're "good" at it on top of fragile egos. I had that problem with Overwatch for a while but once I realized my problems and how to fix them I became much better/happier

  • whisperinbatsie Aiden Valentina (@whisperinbatsie) reported

    @DawnOfArchangel I barely even play fps anymore tbh. I play a little overwatch and a little killing floor (which is an amazingly fun game) but since titanfall died on console and everyone just abuses the broken aim assist on assault rifles and lmgs its not fun anymore

  • macarthur_ow MacArthur 🇹🇭 (@macarthur_ow) reported

    Just lost a one-sided push game only because someone from our team left so they better have gotten their power out or something otherwise it's a problem #Overwatch #Overwatch2

  • GCharle60402168 :/ (@GCharle60402168) reported

    @Aisance6 Me two, I don't know how sign in. Overwatch sucks then Battlefield 20?? who have a lot of Bots and Bugs.

  • benshamman2525 Benshamman2525 (@benshamman2525) reported

    Overwatch is changing Ramattra in the next patch. Along with Doom, Tracer, Hog, and Sojourn. Yet they ignore the people who need to be buffed. Ramattra is not even broken he's in the average while needing a slight buff.

  • oO_SinOfRose_Oo Sin of Rose 🌹 (@oO_SinOfRose_Oo) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent Can y’all please not have me disconnect for no reason while I’m in an overwatch ranked game, then to restart my client just to see that I’ve been banned. Please an thank you.

  • ItsGapchau Gappy (@ItsGapchau) reported

    @OverwatchCaval I don't get it, Tracer's been the same up until Overwatch 2 Season 1 where her damage was nerfed. Now that she's back to normal, people are having problems?

  • TheStoryPainter Josho (@TheStoryPainter) reported

    overwatch feels so broken rn lmao

  • legolyndon Lyndon (@legolyndon) reported

    Overwatch 2 is so broken it's not even funny. The amount of broken *** characters in this game, coupled with the matchmaking that is literally laughable for a AAA game in 2022, holy **** Blizzard fix this.

  • QuandlePringle Quandale Pringle (@QuandlePringle) reported

    I just bought overwatch 2 credits on ps4 and they haven't arrived blizzard fix ur game #Overwatch2

  • MegaTenShugs Shugs (@MegaTenShugs) reported

    @aaronkellerOW Can you fix the brigitte goat skin lol it's transparent when you use the shield lol. It was put in the overwatch league shop and you can't even see it correctly.

  • ILikeTsuKiNo PepperMint (@ILikeTsuKiNo) reported

    Why does it feel that live service games start good and then they suck? Overwatch, fortnite, valorant, etc.

  • joes85olds Joe Maddon's 85 Olds (@joes85olds) reported

    @CPD1617Scanner @for_017 A few snipers on overwatch solves this problem.

  • jtpduffe Joseph Paul Duffey (@jtpduffe) reported

    @LukeWu_Mr0800 @TheXclusiveAce @YouTube Who could tell? My matches on Overwatch 2 may have issues, but barely noticeable.Fights feel fair. This new COD is same as nearly every year. unload 500 ms of bullets directly at torso like they're hitting a sponge w/ no hits,yet on receiving am dead like it's 1 hit from nowhere

  • DreadenDaniel Daniel Dreaden (@DreadenDaniel) reported

    I swear overwatch will never be the same I swear all they do is give buffs an nerfs to the wrong people and they also say that they are gonna fix the game but in the end all the do is break it

  • Aranchine Day, Maternal Titan (cohost.org/Dayyyy) (@Aranchine) reported

    It's really funny to me the hotfix system they made for Overwatch 2 to quickly fix bugs was bugged and didn't work

  • QuandlePringle Quandale Pringle (@QuandlePringle) reported

    does anyone know how to fix overwatch 2 credits not aappearing on ps4

  • Raquez_M Raquez (@Raquez_M) reported

    @NNicx458 @2Calico Last I checked I never called overwatch balanced. While you were stalking my account like a loser you could have at least saw my multiple tweets about my problems with overwatch. You are a d2 defender, that alone tells me how pathetic your life is.

  • LunalightZane Zane (@LunalightZane) reported

    @Rami_Al06 @IHaveYourlP @OverwatchCaval Road hog has been able to do what he does ever since the start of the game I’m talking overwatch one kiriko it’s not the problem. No where is hog the problem is none of this community. Use their damn brains to fight the issue. If you know what you’re doing you can deal with a hog

  • ShadowCressy Crescent (@ShadowCressy) reported

    @MightyKeef not gonna lie. fallen into this rut playing Overwatch 2 as of late. However, seeing the 2023 line up and going back to grind out some Guilty Gear to try to get my fix in to hold until then. ay yo, its hard when you stick to one game to break out, but its satisfying when you do.

  • apt_ace Ace (@apt_ace) reported

    @BlizzardCS @Poetickidxx Hey this has nothing to do with the thread but please fix the friend zone trophy in overwatch. Its been broken since launch of ow2 for players moving from ps4 to ps5. Why does it take this long for 1 bug fix? Please.

  • harvv emerald (@harvv) reported

    i have 4000 hours on overwatch 2, i should NOT be getting new players on my team in comp. fix your matchmaking. @BlizzardCS @aaronkellerOW

  • Dskins207 skins207 (@Dskins207) reported

    @GuyThat92 @CoreyHikari You as a player would still have Starfield on Game Pass. but you'd also have Call of Duty on Game Pass Crash Bandicoot on Game Pass. Spyro the Dragon on Game Pass. Diablo on Game Pass. OverWatch on Game Pass. do I need to go on? why is that a problem for you?

  • Aatuyv Atomizer (@Aatuyv) reported

    @InTheShadeYT Nobody had a problem with Gaylorant being a literal copy of overwatch

  • Ferris279 KFC (@Ferris279) reported

    Overwatch 2 is an actual L game tank meta is so dogshit. As a doom player I’m not having fun and don’t enjoy the game cuz it’s just stun simulator. Blizzard Fix ur ******* game if you want it to succeed. Listen to the community don’t just base it off of ******* winrate.
